Ein Praktisches Handbuch für Buchbinder und Buntpapierfabrikanten. Nach technisch-wissenschaftlichen grundlagen bearbeitet von Josef Halfer, Buchbinder in Budapest. Budapest Im Selbstverlage des Verfassers 1885 8vo. later half green calf with marbled paper covered boards, five raised bands, all edges marbled (a signed binding by Zaehnsdorf). (ii), 202, (4) pages.
First edition of this seminal work on marbling by the Budapest based bookbinder and marbler, Josef Halfer. This first edition was first published without specimen papers. The second edition of 1891 had specimens. "The Halfer system is so important that marbling history is broken at this point, and referred to as pre-Halferian and post-Halferian marbling. The advantages of the Halfer system were two-fold: freed of the laborious preparation of colors, and with standardized colors, marblers could produce more work; and secondly, the use of carragheen size allowed finer detail in marbling." - (Easton, Marbling, a history, pp. 78-9). See also R. Wolfe, Marbled Paper, 1990, pp. 124-30. From the reference library of the Zaehnsdorf Company with a commemorative booklabel loosely inserted. With the bookplate of the Zaehnsdorf Company. Interleaved with blank pages. Rubbed along edges. Spine faded.
